Chorus:

We gotta work it out

Get back what we lost

I see shadows of a doubt,

But I'm keepin'my fingers crossed



She was just turning 17

He always promised her he'd stay

They were so love crazy 'til she had a baby

Then he turned and walked away.





How long will we keep this goin' on

Before we find a way

to care for each other

Living for today, we`ll never see tomorrow.





Chorus





He was just out to get a wreck

He was too proud to show his pain

Someone pulled a trigger guess he never figured

He would lose at his own game.





How long can we keep this goin' on

When no one takes the blame

There's so many gone

We could find a way, it may not be too late.





Chorus





Take a look around, See how hard it is

To survive these days

But sometimes you wonder

How long can this keep goin' on

I guess the only thing you do is keep your fingers crossed





How long will we keep this goin' on

When no one takes the blame

There's so many gone

Livin'for today, we may not see tomorrow





Chorus
